Acquisition of Employability Skills: A Desiderata to “Japa” Syndrome

Abstract

The rate at which Nigerian youths are fleeing the country daily is distressing. Best brains are migrating daily leaving the country at the mercy of the few experts left behind. Besides, investors are gradually withdrawing their investments because nothing seems to be working out in the country any longer. This may be attributed to untoward hardship experienced daily as a result of political instability and bad governance which culminated into increase in poverty level, unemployment, underemployment, insecurity, high standard of living, hunger, moral decadence, just to mention but a few. Nigerian youths see running out of the country for their dear lives in search of a greener pasture as a last resort to the teeming problems which the government failed to address.
